Football deserves a better lens. Maximizing player development requires one.
We don't focus on outcomes. We focus on the decisions driving them.
We are using machine learning and AI to quantify to deliver insights to sporting staff in a form they can actually use.
Please follow @Priori_Sports and my account as I continue to share what the team and I are building.

Difficult to overstate the shortcomings of even "modern" sports analytics relative to current AI/ML, pure math, stats, and computing capabilities.
Spatiotemporal tracking data that conceptualizes the field/pitch/court/rink as a 3-D coordinate plane and conceptualizes the players+ball as a network/graph are under a decade away from proving that many human-observed "principles" of how you're supposed to play soccer, basketball, hockey, etc. are simply laughably wrong.

Tremendous last 24 hours in Brazil. Highlight was w/o doubt my time with “The Professor” Osvaldo Rocha Torres - architect of the CBF Academy and mentor to hundreds of Brazil’s coaches. Proud to hand him copy 1 @coachGareth_Smith79 of our book. Extremely excited for his thoughts
Great few days in Brazil with the CBF Coaching Academy pro fitness coaches license revealing parts of The Holistic Method - @Coach_Gareth79. Topped off by the Maracana experience - phenomenal. Pictures never do great experiences justice.
Advanced book arrived for my trip to Brazil – Player Development: The Holistic Method. Excited to teach with the CBF this week. Great collaboration with @Coach_Gareth79 Book available August 2022. routledge.com/Player-Develop…

Not a Dr yet, but excited to finally get my thesis study accepted for publication (my 1st as lead author)! I loved working on this project to evaluate a unique and hopefully beneficial goalkeeper-fitness test. Big thanks to @jrcone for all his help and guidance

Great collection of parents, coaches and players here at @Jrcone's seminar on recovery. "At high altitudes (like in Aurora, CO), our breathing rates increase, so we dehydrate quicker."
